Refer this, once you enable this feature client connection will be rejected unless RSSI increased 6dBm above the disassociation threshold. Those may be the rejection stat shows.

The client will be allowed to rejoin the AP when the client RSSI value has increased to 6 dBm above the disassociation threshold. For example, if the Data RSSI threshold is -80 dBm, the client will be allowed to re-associate once the RSSI values is increased to -74 dBm.

So in short, the "OptimizedRoaming Rejections" number counts the association requests from clients with a signal below -74 dBm (if we take your sample values)?

You can also set a timer in the optimized roaming section. This timer is then only for the disassociation action?

What is the difference between Optimized Roaming Disassociations and Optimized Roaming Rejections?

I see 0 Disassociations but +20,000 Rejections on 802.11a.
